pierrebonomo's rating
My class just finished watching this movie after having read the book. They preferred the book much more.
Charles thinks Jeff does not resemble the character from the book. The characters are not nearly as complex as in the book. Where's Irma? We want Irma! Ms. Griffin is barely shown and her character is not developed at all. Mark's home life should have resembled that of the book more. This would make his motives more believable.
The final scene in the book is much more dramatic than in this movie version.

My grade 10 ESL students read the book and then watched this film version. They were not impressed at all and everyone agreed that it is not a good portrayal of the book. Some essential scenes are missing such as Mike Chamber's story which helps the reader really understand the motivation behind Bryon's change of heart. It would really have not been that difficult to just follow what was written in the book. Someone needs to be blamed for this poor excuse of a film!
The desperate male students in the class were hoping that the Angela character would have been as hot as she is described in the book!
Read the book instead.
